And they continue to go home!! Great week! Calypso and Butters went home Wednesday night. Calypso's family arrived first and and when the carrier was prepared Butters went and jumped into it! Guess he was a tad anxious knowing his turn was next! When his new family arrived he went right into the proper carrier. Calypso will be the only pet in the house. Butters will have both a canine and feline sibling.
Puffy has a pending application which so far looks good. We are still waiting for some information. Poor Puffy seems sad. She was always a finicky eater here at the Shelter and apparently that is continuing and she is not eating. Purina Cat Chow was her favorite here so a small bag was brought down to the store to see if she would eat it. Please note in the book if she is eating and "eliminating." Hopefully she will get to leave soon.
Two new girls arrived today...Isabelle and Ginger. Ginger is a blue cream pretty girl that has been at the Shelter since October of last year. She was a poor old mangy looking thing - skin and bones and losing hair. The staff gave her a lot of TLC and she is looking good! She would do fine in a home with other cats, dogs and kids.
Isabelle is gray tiger/torbi who was found in a managed cat colony in one of our shore communities. She was already spayed and we suspect was dumped there by someone thinking the colony caretaker would see she was okay. She is young - a little under a year. She is an outgoing little girl and will adapt to any environment.
As always - please monitor the new guys and see how they fit in before pushing them to socialize. Here they are:
On Thursday the blankets from the hamper were brought to the Shelter, washed and returned. The room looks great!! Everyone does such a good job keeping it clean - and I know it is not an easy task in those cramped quarters! Again, thank you all for your commitment to this program. I just can not say enough how much this means to the Shelter.
I'm not going to bug you guys about the June calendar because it is still early May! Wouldn't hurt to take a peek though! :-)
Happy Mother's Day to all my moms!!!
Yes, we have kittens! Spread the word! ^..^
